On the day of his seventieth birthday, Chen Jingming, a once highly respected middle school teacher, was deceived by his son Chen Jianguo into the "Sunset Red Paradise" nursing home in the name of "travel".
When he reacted, his son had already driven away, leaving him with only a cold, carefully packaged "abandonment."
Here, he met all kinds of "prisoners":
· Roommate Zhou Shoucheng uses acrimony as a shield to secretly plan the "final escape". ·Grandma Su sits by the window all day long, waiting for her "lover" who will never come. ·Uncle Li, a veteran who digs holes in the yard every day, says he wants to find his "roots".
The nursing home is a gorgeous island, and the children who "perform filial piety" are the audience, and they are the goldfish in the tank for people to watch for peace of mind.
Chen Jingming wanted to spend the rest of his life soberly, but accidentally discovered Zhou Shoucheng's hidden diagnosis of terminal illness and a mysterious key...
When a sudden epidemic turns nursing homes into "isolated islands" isolated from the world, all pretense is torn to pieces.
Chen Jingming and Zhou Shoucheng, two old men with very different personalities, decided to lead everyone in a final "prison break" towards death, not to escape from this place, but to regain the dignity and freedom that had been deprived by time and the world.
